“Glory, glory, hallelujah! … glory, glory…” — err, got busted in the middle of my joyous fanfare there. Quality Assurance representative Arvaana posted in the World of Warcraft: Legion Alpha forums that the servers will be brought online today.

Here is the known-issues list posted by him.

Salutations eager Alpha participants!

Below is a list of issues that we are aware of. Please note that this list is not complete and only highlights issues that we believe will have moderate visibility for Alpha participants. I’ll be updating this list regularly, so it’s a good idea to check it out prior to posting in the bug forums.

  • Cages inside of Violet Hold are sometimes missing Arcane Barriers during the Havoc Demon Hunter Acquisition questline.

  • Shaman who enter the Maelstrom during the quest “A Ring Unbroken” may be placed into the wrong phase upon landing.
